10 Minute Upper Body Workout You Can Do At Your Desk

It me & my home office (aka desk in the living room :) )

No time for a workout? Think again. Here are 4 Upper Body Exercises you can do while sitting at your desk.

I may work from home, but that doesn’t mean I have the freedom to take hours off to go do a workout.

I do, however, need to move around or take many short breaks throughout the workday (I get antsy sitting around for hours on end. Who here can relate?!)

So, I got a little creative, and I developed a few quick and easy workouts that you can do sitting at your desk.

Sound too good to be true? Check out this 10 minute at-your-desk upper body workout below!

Upper Body Workout While Sitting at Your Desk (Literally, sitting):

• Equipment: 1 loop resistance band (heavy-xtra heavy) & 1 tube resistance band - found on Amazon!

  • I keep these items near my desk at all times. I recommend you do the same!

  • If you don’t have this equipment: A.) I suggest you buy them! Especially if you’re having trouble getting a workout in around work. They’re each around $10, and the loop resistance band comes in a pack of 5. B.) Use a high sock, your belt, or a large rubber band! Get creative with it ;).

The Workout:

• Loop Band Shoulder Abduction Isometric Holds x10 seconds

• Loop Band Shoulder Abduction Pulses x20

• Loop Band External Rotation x10

• Loop Band or Tube Resistance Band Bicep Curls x10 each

• Tube Resistance Band Tricep x10

• Tube Resistance Band Shoulder Press x10 each

• Loop or Tube Resistance Band Scapular Retraction x10

Balancing work & fitness/health isn’t difficult if you prepare yourself with the right tools & let the creative juices flow.

10 minutes is all you need to do this Upper Body at-your-desk workout.

so, NO EXCUSES! Get after it :)
